They will share theory and implementation strategies regarding academic achievement, youth development, family engagement, and 21st Century Grant leadership. The conference also includes a working session for grant staff to meet and plan.
This one day training is planned by the Arizona Department of Education and the Vision Team (Arizona advisory board for 21st CCLC).
